Mike Karz (C'89, W'89) will be producing Sorority Row, a remake of the 1983 horror film The House on Sorority Row.
Per the Hollywood Reporter,"The plot sees a group of sorority sisters try to cover up the death of their house-sister after a prank gone wrong, only to be stalked and killed by a serial killer."
The film will star Carrie Fisher (still in negotiations), Rumer Willis, Julian Morris, Leah Pipes, Margo Harshman and Briana Evigan.

Set your DVR's for Friday, October 10 when Elizabeth Banks (C'96) will appear on The Letterman Show most likely to promote her Zack and Miri Make a Porno and W films.
Liz also appears in this new trailer below for The Uninvited, a horror film which comes out in January 2009. Per shocktillyoutdrop.com, the film's synopsis is as follows:"Based on Kim Jee-Woon's 2003 Korean chiller, A Tale of Two Sisters, the story revolves around a pair of siblings who return home to their father after spending time in a mental institution. Their recovery is hindered by their cruel stepmother's obsessiveness and an interfering ghost."

New to DT? 14 easy suggestions to get started!
As I've been posting here on DT, Kevin Shapiro (C'12) has been vlogging about his experiences as a freshman at Penn. I think Kevin's vlogs have been a great way to document how someone new to Penn feels. Something for prospects to check out for sure and something for alumni to relive vicariously!
In Kevin's vlog below, he talks about getting kicked out of a lounge for talking about math and also discusses what activities he's gotten involved in so far.
In this second vlog below, Kevin continues by talking about missing home...something we have all felt at one point or another.

A half hour after I was done with the elliptical (okay 20 minutes), I checked out cbs.com and after a few google searches realized that Penn alum Sarah Leshner (C'98, W'03) does indeed appear on this season's The Amazing Race 13 with her boyfriend Terence. They are billed as the "opposites attract" couple.
Check out minute 0:26 of the inro clip above
